Through the Mailly family saga, the city of Paris became the cultural and political center of the nineteenth century, spanning the Napoleonic era, the Restoration, the July Monarchy, the 1848 uprisings, the Second Empire, the Commune, and the Belle Époque.In this context, different approaches and tensions emerge: musical Romanticism, great literature and poetry, art, which sees Impressionism as a fundamental shift for the contemporary era, and science, which, starting with electrica...

The eighteenth century began with the absolutism of the Sun King and the pervasive presence of empires like the English and Russian, and ended with the figures of Napoleon and the independence of the United States of America.This transformation was made possible by three distinct, and almost simultaneous, revolutions: the American, the French, and the Industrial Revolution.These revolutions were based on two solid pillars: the Enlightenment, which owed much of its foundation ...

"Once Upon a Time in America" is Sergio Leone's latest film, what the director himself defined as "my cinema".With a very troubled gestation, so much so that it took fifteen years from the first idea to the final realization, and with an overall duration much longer than the normal extension of a cinematographic film, this film turns into a discussion on time, in a way of transposing, with the infinite wisdom of those who know how to mix music and photography, scenography and color,...

This manual explains the fundamental concepts for understanding natural gas pricesIn particular, the following topics are covered:what is natural gas, what are the reference markets and prices, what are the fundamentals of gas based on production, consumption, exports and stocks, what influences the price and insights into the financial instruments available. The obvious and obvious conclusion will be that natural gas is a very particular raw material with peculiarities not f...

A present year, exemplifying what flows daily in each person's life, becomes the backdrop against which seven characters scattered across a Europe whose identity is vague and abstract, though totally pervasive.A land steeped in recent doubts and age-old traditions, in rapid innovation and ancient securities, in wills denied and freedoms rediscovered is the canvas for actions, dialogues and thoughts that seem to be lost in the void of contemporaneity.

The seventeenth century was the century of the great scientific revolution, with the inductive and experimental methods developed by Bacon and Galileo, the discoveries of optics, Kepler's laws, Descartes's philosophical system, the ideas of Pascal and Spinoza, and, finally, the great work of Newton.The same century was also pervaded by the destruction and disease caused by the Thirty Years' War, a conflict that tore Europe apart, almost completely annihilating the population of Germ...
